The City of Baltimore has always had a great maritime history, due to its inland location.
3
Railroads led the way for terminal development. However, they lost the incentive after WWII when trucking became viable option for transportation.
4
In the past 2,000 years, there have been three paradigm shifts in ship design and maritime transportation.
1. Steam Propulsion - early 1800s
2. Steel shipbuilding - late 1800s
3. Containerized cargo – 1956 (Larger terminals needed.)

• 16,500 Direct jobs• 33,700 Induced and Indirect jobs
$388 million in State and local taxes per year.
Neighboring Ports are very competitive for our business & jobs.
Developers are competitive for waterfront land in the City.

PUDs were eroding the Port’s critical mass. It was difficult to say “No” to developers one-on-one. Land Use became a constant issue at the
Industrial - Mixed Use frontier.
In the early 2000s the City realized it could better manage Planned Unit Developments.
Maritime/Industrial Use
Jobs
Adds value
Must be on deep water.
Residential/Commercial Use
Taxes
Consumes value
Desires waterfront, butcan be located inland.

MIZOD helped the Port’s private terminals’ ability to get financing and protection from encroachment.
Underlying Zoning is “Heavy Industrial”.
Deep water (18’), with RR or Hwy access.
Planned Unit Developments (PUD’s) are not allowed for 10 years (until 2014).
Taverns & live entertainment not allowed.
Office, Hotel, Commercial uses are not permitted, unless as an accessory use.
A 10-year extension is now being considered…
In 2004 the City passed the Maritime Industrial Zone Overlay District (MIZOD).
